Photographs,& useful little apps.

Hello, I'm Amr. I photograph cars, people, and places, and make small tools for the creative work around them. Have a look around.

Come for a look around.

There's more over on my photography site: cars, portraits, commercial shoots, and places that caught my eye. Browse the photographs, or get in touch if you have a shoot in mind.

PanoramaSlice

Split wide photos into ordered Instagram carousels.

Let a wide photo unfold as people swipe. Choose an Instagram-ready size, check the joins, and save the slides in order. Instagram still applies its own processing after upload.

MatteScale

Give your photos room to breathe.

Keep every edge of a favorite photo with a border. Try a square, portrait, or Story template, then frame a whole set to match with Pro. Instagram-ready sizes and adjustable sharpening help you prepare the details before upload.

EarGuard

One accidental blast is enough.

If you use sensitive earphones and a dongle DAC, a sudden jump to full volume can feel like a shotgun in your ear. That is why I built EarGuard: choose a limit for each Windows audio device and let it turn the setting back down when something changes.

A brief spike can still get through, and device control varies. Keep listening levels low; EarGuard is an extra precaution, not a hearing-safety guarantee.

Chromastat

A closer look at the color in your photos.

Choose Find Lightroom once and keep live color and exposure views beside your photo. Pin a view where you need it, or arrange a workspace on another screen. Your layout saves for the next edit.

Behind the photosand the apps.

I'm Amr, an engineer in Dubai. I got into Blender as a kid, and photography became a big part of my life along the way. A lot of these apps started with something I wanted to do with my own photos.

AI has let me build more than I could have managed alone. I'm making use of it, with plenty still to figure out.

  1. Commercial Photography

    I shoot cars, people and places, and spend a lot of time with the edit afterwards. I care about how the finished photograph feels, whether it’s for a client or for myself.

  2. Creator Software

    Tools I wanted on my own computer: for preparing photos, checking a sentence, or keeping an unexpected volume change in check. They’re here for you to use too.

    Photo Tools · Writing · Color · Windows · macOS

  3. Offline AI Workflows

    I run models on my own computer for writing and image work. I like being able to try an idea with my own files and see where it goes.

If something here catches your eye, I'd love to hear about it.
